My neck and the area around it has gone noticeably darker since i became pregnant, im in 2nd trimester now. MIL also pointed it out and im a bit conscious. Why does this happen yaar?
i felt so bad looking in the mirror when my neck and face started darkening in my second trimester. but my doc assured me it is very normal and now 3 months postpartum, my skin is mostly back to normal.
omg same here, my neck and underarms have become so dark suddenly in my 6th month! does this actually fade away completely after delivery or do we need to use some special creams?
beta, this is chloasma or pregnancy mask and is very common. you can gently apply a little raw milk or cucumber juice on the dark areas ghar pe, but don't use any chemical peeling creams right now.
im currently trying to conceive and was reading about this. my bhabhi also got dark patches on her face, she said its natural and we should avoid harsh chemicals.
my mil told me not to scrub hard with heavy ubtans because it can irritate the skin more. she was right, it is just internal hormones and goes away naturally after delivery.
with my twins, my neck became so dark i looked like i hadn't bathed in years lol. it is just the heavy surge of hormones, mostly melasma, and it goes away on its own after babies are born.
it is just because of pregnancy hormones increasing melanin in your body. dont worry about it right now, it will start fading slowly after you deliver.
